Hi everybody!!! Ok so I have 2 questions, one about veggies, and one about cage stands.
OK, so today me and my mom went to the pet store to pick up hay and toys, and then we wet to a local market to get lettuce and such for the guinea pigs and the bunny. I got green leaf lettuce, romaine lettuce, red leaf lettuce, swiss chard, cilantro, and red, green, and yellow peppers. I pre-bag my veggies. I give 2 cups a day to both the pig and the bun.
so my mom started to complain because we buy a lot of veggies. Obviously we need to, and I like to buy them from the local market because they are fresh, even though it's a bit more expensive. I grow some veggies and herbs, but not enough for my pigs to live off of. We always wait forever to get more veggies, and then we have none, and my mom said 'we just went to get some.' How can I tell her that the pets need veggies everyday and we need to buy enough?
OK, for my main question, I know the grids you get at Target are dangerous, but could I make a stand out of them? The pigs wouldn't be going close to them, and I don't want to pay $200 for a stand off the website. So would the grids with the large holes be OK just for a stand? I have wanted one for a while, and my room is getting cramped with all my guinea pig supplies.
Thank you! Any advice is appreciated!
